Hearing your phone buzz again for the third time, you let out a soft breath. Reaching over, you flipped your phone, reading the series of texts.

'Hey, it was great seeing you again, we should hang out soon!' 'Hey Y/n I was wondering if you wanted to hang out tonight? I've got a great spot I think you'd enjoy.' 'Let me know! I'd love to see you again.'

You felt the other's eyes on you, but you ignored them as you set your phone back down, before looking up at the screen. You needed to focus on the con, not a date.

"Was that Danny?"

You felt your body freeze for a second as Sophie spoke. Looking over, you saw a small smirk on her face, and from beside her, the others with obvious piqued interest.

"Danny?" Breanna asked with a musing tone.

"An old friend, recently moved back here, we caught up a few days ago." You said simply, hoping to satiate their curiosity.

Sophie hummed "He seems keen to see you again it seems."

Your eyes briefly shot over to Harry, who's face showed he was interested in what was occurring.

Forcing yourself to look back at Sophie, you nodded "Yeah. He, uh, asked me out, but we've got the con-"

"The con should be over and done with this afternoon, you should definitely go!" Sophie said with a slightly raised voice

"Oh, uh."

"Yeah, go get your date on!" Breanna said with an exaggerated movement of her head.

You looked over at Eliot who seemed unconcerned, and then Parker and Hardison, who just stared at you, as if waiting for your response. Your eyes moved to Harry who's face remained almost blank.

He nodded his head softly "Yeah, uh, I agree with Sophie and Breanna, you should go."

You felt your chest tighten a bit as disappointment washed over you. "You...all, think I should go?"

'All'

Harry, Harry thinks you should go. Then again, why wouldn't he. Why would he care who you dated, even if you wanted him to care.

Sophie and Breanna nodded their heads fervently. As Parker and Hardison glanced between each other, something you failed to notice.

Harry stared at you with growing anxiety, as he berated himself in his mind for encouraing you to go.

You let out a soft laugh as Sophie and Breanna stared at you intently. "Okay okay, I'll go. If the con is done by then. Just stop staring at me already."

Sophie smiled brightly "Great, well then. Lets not waste any time."

As Sophie rose from her seat, you moved to go get prepared, following Eliot out of the room. Grabbing your phone, you re-read Danny's messages back before replying, almost reluctantly.

'Yeah I'd love to. I got work to do, but it should be finished in time, I'll let you know.'

Harry watched you walk off, and his heart sank in his chest. Suddenly feeling a hard smack against his shoulder he let out a soft yelp, as Hardison sat beside him.

"What was that for?" Harry asked in confusion.

"What the hell was that dude?

"What was wha- ow!"

Parker smacked him in the other arm as she sat beside him. "What was what? That, was you telling Y/n they should go on that date!"

"Well-" Harry stumbled a bit "Why shouldn't they?"

Parker and Hardison rolled their eyes in unison.

"Dude, it's obvious you got a thing for Y/n. So what you don't go and do, is tell the person you are into, to go on a date with someone else!" Hardison's voice grew in volume and frustration as he spoke.

"Okay, okay!" Harry said, with his voice hushed. "What was I supposed to do? Y/n doesn't know how I feel."

"That's why you have to tell them" Parker started "Before they go on a date, fall madly in love, causing Y/n to leave their life of crime behind, abandoning us all and moving to a quaint countryside and opening up a cafe where they sell coffee to old people!"

Hardison and Harry stared at Parker for a moment before Harry shook his head with a sigh "Well when you put it that way."

Hardison lightly smacked his arm again "Dude, I see how you feel about Y/n. I get it. You think you aren't worthy enough for them, you think they wont see anything in you. But dude, Y/n already does."

"You think so?"

"We know so." Parker said softly. "Y/n looked at you when they weren't sure what to do with Darren."

"Danny"

"Whatever. They were hoping you'd tell them not to go. But you didn't."

Hardison nudged him "And you have too. Otherwise you might lose your chance all together."

Harry looked out the door you had gone through, as he took a deep breath. They were right. It would kill him to see you with someone else. And it would be his fault.

--- --- ---

Seeing Sophie and Eliot leave, lost in conversation, you let out a soft sigh as you looked around. It seemed like everyone had left.

Grabbing your bag, you looked at your phone. You had yet to tell Danny you could meet up with him. The con was done, you were free. All you had to do was tell him you could see him.

'Hey, I'm done with work, still want to get that dinner?'

You looked at your unsent message, your finger hovering over the send button.

Hearing a suddenly bang as someone rushed through the door behind you, you spun around in surprise.

Seeing Harry with a look of urgency on his face, you set your phone down.

Harry felt a sense of relief wash over him "Oh, uh, you're still here!"

"Yeah.." You let out a soft laugh "Is everything okay?"

"Oh, yeah, yeah, just...thought I-" As Harry's eyes cast over the table, he stepped forward "lost my phone, but there it is" He pointed at it with a smile.

"Oh" You smiled, amused at his distress.

Your heat fluttered a bit in your chest as he looked back over at you with a smile. You noted how it faltered before he spoke again, his eyes trailing you up and down pausing on your bag briefly.

"Uh, you heading out? I mean, going on a date with Danny still?"

You looked down at your phone and smiled, though it did not meet your eyes. "Yeah, I was just getting ready to text him."

Harry nodded, but remained silent, he wracked his brain for something to say, anything, as you stared at him, almost expectantly.

As Harry said nothing, you felt a familiar pang of disappointment in your chest. You smiled at him. "I should go."

Turning to leave, you grabbed your phone. Harry felt a sudden jolt of panic course through him.

"Wait!" He suddenly yelled out, catching both of you by surprise.

You turned back around, eyes wide with surprise "What?"

Harry let out a soft sigh "Don't go on that date."

Your heart leapt in your chest as you turned back totwards him. You swallowed "Why?"

Harry let out a soft laugh as he shook his head. "Come on, you gotta know why."

You could hear your heavy heartbeat in your head as you softly shook your head. "Say it." You were almost pleading.

Harry let out a sigh as he walked closer to you. "Because I don't want to see you with someone else."

"Someone else?" You asked softly

"Someone who's not me." He shrugged lightly "I want you to be with me. And I almost ruined that by saying you should go on that date with Danny. But I don't want you to. So don't. Please."

You refrained from smiling as you took a step closer to him "So you waited 'til the very last second to stop me?"

Harry looked around before nodding awkwardly.

You let out a soft laugh "You're an idiot you know that?"

His smile grew as he nodded "I am entirely aware, yes." He took a small step closer, nearly closing the distance between the two of you. "Was my stupidity entirely in vain?"

You eyed him for a moment before you smiled softly and shook your head "No, Harry, it was not."

His smile turned into a grin as he moved ever so closer, before gently taking your hand in his, and caressing the back of it with his thumb.

Looking from your hand, back to your eyes, he smiled softly, almost shyly "Then would you like to go get dinner with me?"

You nodded with a smile "I'd love too."

Since no one else is writing any Harry x reader fics, I decided I would try my hand at it. Hope you like it!

Prompt: Leverage AU where Harry Wilson is the Noah Wyle character in The Red Line, where he was married to a man of color murdered by the police. Instead of being a rich morally bankrupt lawyer, he’s a relatively powerless divorce lawyer or something. Cue Leverage team to… provide leverage.

Gifs from The Red Line. (Surprisingly, searching ‘the red line’ in the gifs tab pulls up a lot of relevant results, including several of Noah Wyle doing his ‘unsuccessfully trying not to cry’ face. He’s good at the cryface and he should have opportunities to do it on Leverage.)

Edit: I wrote a drabble about this:

Leverage: Redemption

S2 E1-3

Sophie is trying to figure out the leadership dynamics with these people who are her family, friends, team members and home. Ultimately, wuth all these different layers in their relationship, she doesn't want to mess this up.

Hardison constantly belittles Breanna's achievements and meanwhile she keeps seeing from different perspectives and taking notice of some things that Hardison doesn't with his tons of experience. He needed to trust in her abilities. It's the delicate balance between the fear of losing one's relevance and influence which isn't a bad thing. But to also remember, that even the mentees would become mentors at some point and that doesn't mean one's influence has reduced, rather it has expanded. Think of it as birthing another leader.

"Look, Bree, I'm used to showing you the way, not you showing me. So I'm sorry, really"

Are we capable of change?

"And how does that help Dee Dee now? This team can't solve the world's bigger problems. We're just... we're not built for it. What we can do is help one person and then the next, and then the next, and then we look back, and you see how much you've changed. It's baby steps, Breanna"

Sometimes, it just feels like no matter what you do and even when one reaches a peak so to speak, there is still that gnawing feeling that you're not doing enough.

"Because you can't dwell on the past. You have to keep moving forward. But sometimes when you look back, you see how much you've changed. Baby steps, Sophie, baby steps."

I think the past is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it can try convince us we haven't changed in the form of old friends and acquaintances tugging on our guilt strings or like Breanna said we can reflect and evaluate how much we've changed.

That is actually my favorite line from that episode

Underrated Leverage: Redemption line from Eliot to Harry in “the great train job”: “we never really discussed this before you joined the team, but you a serial killer???”

Leverage Redemption:

Harry and his redemption list

Harry Wilson wasn't completely useless with technology, despite what his daughter joked. He loved a good mobile game, he was always up on his email--which would have been a real game changer for the industry if not for the fact that he really wasn't that old, seriously, enough with the jokes, email'd been around for most of his career. He seriously did not miss pagers, though there was something satisfying about a flip phone. He knew what a Pokemon was, he could theoretically post a tweet, and he frequented several tumblr blogs that posted kitten videos and interesting art. He was by no means a technophobe. 

But he appreciated paper. There was something about writing by hand on good quality paper, with a fountain pen, or at least a Pilot G-2 gel pen, black ink, instead of some chicken-scratch cheap ballpoint, or worse, typing and printing out. Something about writing by hand made things real. 

That was sort of the problem, he thought, sitting at his desk with the ink spreading out on the paper. Bleeding, it was called. It felt like blood. It wasn't that they weren't real to him, all his clients, all his cases. All the victims he'd helped to bulldoze. They had always been real. That just hadn't mattered.

He wrote the first name. Cole. The second. Mateo.  The ink bled over the paper and his hands as he wrote down years of names.

In the morning, he can use the resources Leverage has to offer. He can see who he can find. He can see who he can try to help, even if he can't fix it entirely. He can see what was left in the wake after the gavel came down. 

Tonight, though, Harry sat at his desk and wrote his list, hating every time he had to consult a file because the name wouldn't come to his memory. That might be the worst crime of all, the not remembering. But who could he blame for that but himself? He chose it all. That mattered. And, he thought with some guilt, he chooses this now. Which choice outweighs the other?  

Every name is a brick in the road to redemption. It's going to be a long walk.
